What made it more disappointing was that even though we mentioned our anniversary in the reservation, no one acknowledged it. Other places we’ve been to usually add a small touch like petals on the table or a little dessert to make the evening feel special. It’s not a big deal, but it definitely adds to the experience.
The location was great, but overall, the food and service didn’t meet our expectations. Sadly, we probably wouldn’t come back since there are better spots out there for the same price.
Timing between dishes, never rushed but never forgotten about. For my $ the atmosphere is also the best in Tampa. Tables are NOT on top of each other as they are in Ocean Prime, etc. Tall ceilings, two levels, beautiful bar, never brushed against by the staff. While not totally quiet, there really is no high noise level and there is never an issue of noise interfering with discussion with your guests.
Of course, the main attraction, the food, which is amazing. THE best lobster, filet and fish I have had in Tampa. Sides are a perfect compliment. Desserts are as good as they get. People will complain about prices, but guess what, it really is not as bad as Palm Beach, Miami or NYC prices.
This has become my go to restaurant in Tampa.
The steak was absolutely outstanding, tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection, and the Jack Daniel’s steak sauce was bursting with flavor and paired perfectly. We also ordered sautéed broccoli, lobster mac & cheese, and mashed potatoes, and every dish was just as impressive, perfectly cooked and full of flavor.
The only thing to note is that finding the restaurant was a little confusing, as there were no clear signs to guide you in. Once we found it, though, the experience more than made up for it. Malio’s delivers on every level: quality, service, and atmosphere. We can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend!
First – the eacargot and drinks were great, that’s about where the experience ends.
Ordered crab mashed potatoes, jalapeño corn, and a New York Strip along with French onion and escargot appetizer. The escargot came out first, then the sides, then the steak main, and after requesting the soup several times it came out last.
The steak was super super rare and less than room temp (weird?) so I requested it be put back on to cook it to the proper temp. All of this transpired over the course of probably 40 minutes so by the time the steak came back , the sides were now cold. I requested the sides be reheated so they actually ended up bringing out replacement sides, except they were not the same sides they substituted the $28 crab mashed potatoes with regular.
Steak was not cooked well, overall I would say awful experience they did comp the steak but nothing else.
I suspect the experience is probably decent on the right day but that clearly was not the right day. The staff and management were well aware it wasn’t ideal so I am not a keyboard warrior who said nothing at the time. I would probably try it again but with tempered expectations.
